Though reports of that incident suggest
that the collision resulted mostly from the respective crews'
inattention aggravated by the sailing crew's failure to turn off their
boat's autopilot when they saw the motor vessel approaching,

A poor example in this case, since they saw the boat coming and STILL couldn't
get out of the way. Perhaps they had radar. Didn't matter.
The way this clown talks, he probably thinks the radar will blow away the fog,
which he might see once a season.
